From editor or global species database
Nomenclature This spelling usage as 'heterocera' appears to be the correct suffix for the mandatory gender (feminine) agreement, based on -cerus a um declination. Grube's heterocerus (masculine) appears to be incorrect in the original formulation in Serpula (feminine) [details]
